Jennifer’s Bio

Hello! I am Jennifer and have been caring for children since I was a teen. I started by babysitting children in my neighborhood and my cousins, then moving on to day cares, schools&in home care. Caring for children is a natural instinct for me. I love what I do and could never imagine doing anything else. From Eastern Michigan University I received my Bachelors in Elementary Education with my Early Childhood endorsement. I am now working on my Masters in Elementary Special Education. I lead the children's functions for the Loyal Order of the Moose 222-a non profit charitable organization that raises money for foster children and the elderly. I am looking for a position with a family where I can become a real benefit to a child's development.
